Santorini, Greece

Santorini, Greece

| Santorini’s vines are trained in a traditional basket shape called kouloura to protect grapes from sun and wind.
| The island’s flagship grape is Assyrtiko, known for crisp, citrus-driven wines with sea-breeze minerality and great aging potential.
Fun Facts:
- Santorini vineyards are among the oldest ungrafted vines in the world — phylloxera-free thanks to volcanic soil
- Due to low rainfall, yields are tiny: one vine may produce only 2–3 glasses of wine
- Wines labeled “Nykteri” means "staying up all night". It is a type of dry white wine from Santorini, must be made with overripe grapes and aged in oak
